AProgDir,

Just in need of a quick tip about a situation: I'm taking CS this month and have had a few programs e-mail me about whether or not my school allows me to graduate without having passed CS. Fortunately, my school does allow me to graduate, get my M.D., and my diploma having only sat for this exam.

My question is this: should I contact every program at which I interviewed and volunteer this information? Or, only tell those that asked?

It basically boils down to this: would a program not bother to ask this regarding my school and rank me farther down as a result?

Thanks in Advance.

I'm surprised that many programs care that much. The pass rate for CS is very high. I would tend to answer programs that ask, but not make a big deal of it.

Most MSPE's have this information included in the appendix. I'm surprsied that your school does not.
